Cannot Install iTune 10.6, always rollin' back

Cannot Install iTune 10.6, always rollin' back

I have problems Installing updates all the time. Its a pain in the butt, but the way I have to install it takes a bit more than anyone elses. First you have to make sure that Any old Itunes files are deleted. The ones that were causing problems for me were
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple
C:\ProgramData\Apple
C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer
BUT BEFORE YOU ERASE THOSE FILES FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW
* You're going to need Winzip or Jzip (Free- http://www.jzip.com)*
STAGE 1:
After you have winzip or jzip go ahead an choose between option 1 or 2:
OPTION 1 (IF YOU'RE UPDATNIG):
1. go to Itunes Menu bar >HELP > CHECK FOR UPDATES 
2.error will occur, instructing you to go to TOOLS> DOWNLOAD ONLY
3.Go ahead and Download and save them to your Desktop.
THEN:
Go ahead and uninstall everything in this order.
Using Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Go one by one until everything is uninstalled.
RESTART YOUR COMPUTER 
OPTION 2 (IF YOU'RE DOWNLOADING):
1.Go To : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/  to download iTunesSetup.exe
2. go ahead and open the folder where the file was downloaded to
3. Right Click iTunesSetup.exe
4. Extract the files to your desktop or folder
5. IF you previously had itunes installed you will need to make sure all of these programs are uninstalled in this order
iTunes
QuickTime
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Go one by one until everything is uninstalled.
RESTART YOUR COMPUTER  if you previously had itunes installed.
STAGE 2:
Then Go ahead and look for these folders & Delete each one.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple
C:\ProgramData\Apple
C:\ProgramData\Apple Computer
Once that is complete
Go ahead and click on the Itunes installer & install ITUNES
The install will roll back during Apple Mobile Device installation, but should still install.
IN ORDER TO SYNC properly do not stop there.
YOU are going to need Winzip or Jzip (what i recommend) to extract a couple of files.
First file:
Right Click on the APPLE MOBILE DEVICE installer and extract it to a New folder on your DESKTOP.
After you have done so, go ahead and open this folder
Second FIle:
In the Folder you have extracted, you will find a second file named
THIS CONTENTS OF THIS FILE MUST BE EXTRACTED AS WELL!
Extract this file to a NEW folder>>>> NAME THIS FOLDER Mobile Device Support
AND EXTRACT (OR CUT & PASTE)  IT TO THIS LOCATION C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple
Once you have done all of this go ahead and open Itunes
To ensure sync and everything else is working properly.
Hope this helps! in some way.

    cannot install iTunes download gets to 99% and always stops. Unistalled old version but it just won't install Version 10.5. Have tried at least ten times. Any ideas Please?

    did you uninstall all 6 components in itunes though?

    I cannot install iTunes on Windows 7 I receive the Error 7 (Windows Error 193). 
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few times but with no luck.  Does anyone have another option?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
    If the above steps haven't helped try installing:
    iTunes 12.1.0.71 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - itunes64setup.exe (2015-01-28)
    which is a 64-bit installer for a 32-bit core program, similar to previous 64-bit releases of iTunes.
    Or roll back to:
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe (2014-10-16)
    iTunes 12.0.1.26 for Windows (64-bit) - iTunes64Setup.exe (2014-10-16)
    as appropriate.

  • Cannot install iTunes on windows 7 64bit

    Okay, I like so many cannot install iTunes on Windows 7 64bit.
    Now Orginally I got a message saying something to the effect of:
    There was a problem with the install you do not have permission for something...
    Through some investigating my iTunes was being installed and removing all my permissions to view and/or modify files within that folder. Even if I was logged in as admin and installed as admin all the permissions would simply block me out.
    This kind of had a familar feeling as in the last few versions of iTunes I had to run as admin just to open it (this is really annoying by the way)
    So I searched the net and many people were saying to uninstall everything "Apple" and try again.  So I did that.  Now I have this new message:
    there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor.
    And again I scoured the internet for a way to fix this.  I apparently am supposed to goto Control Pannel/Programs and Features and select Apple Software Update and select repair.  The problem is that no longer exists in my programs list since I removed it in the earlier step. iTunes still refuses to install spitting out the same error forever. I tried the Microsoft "fix it" tool which is supposed to remove the Apple Software Update incomplete uninstall (which is apparently the whole problem) but it doesn't show up in the list for "fixing".
    I am at a loss.  Why doesn't Apple fix this.  I cannot update my iPhone to the latest software in fear I may need to restore it. With no iTunes that is impossible.  I cannot change any of my music or do anything until this is resolved.  If/when iPhone 5 comes out I cannot get it either unless this issue is taken care of somhow.
    I searched for an installer for just the Apple Software Update program But it seems to not exist as a standalone thing (it would be useful if it were though). If it were perhaps I could install it again and then successfully remove/repair it and iTunes might install finally.
    Now I have had previous versions of iTunes working perfectly fine.  I do not recall which version I was using before I tried to update and fell into this abyss however.

    Yes b noir. I've tried running just "iTunes64.msi" from the command-line and while it didn't produce the same error "There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vender." it produced a different error in bold-type "iTunes Installer Completed" then "The installer encountered errors before iTunes could be configured...Errors occurred during installation. Your system has not been modified...Please run the installer again, or click Finish to exit". However, I discovered a wealth of options from the Windows Installer to try after typing "iTunes64.msi passive"...So I'll experiment some more when I have time.
    P.S. I'm becoming more convinced that Apple is putting new software out there to get it debugged which was a trick that MicroSoft always seemed to do:-)

    Apple offer this advice which I guess is not much help to you as you have Norton:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1609?viewlocale=en_US
    I wonder if it is worth looking in the your firewall configuration>>Programs and deleting any entry for Bonjour - in the hope that you will be prompted to allow it or not when you do the install, or maybe adding it back with permit all.
    But someone came up with another possible solution at the end of this thread:

  • Cannot install itunes on new laptop

    Cannot install itunes on new laptop, even when security software is disabled.  Downloads fine, goes through install and then says it can't install on my system.  I have admin priviledges and already have Quicktime running.  Help!  I have itunes already running beautifully on 3 other computers and an ipod touch with home sharing - but my new laptop just won't intall itunes.  Can anyone help?

    Many thanks. Quite often with the 0x800736B3 on the iTunes install, there seems to be an 0x8007000b in play for Windows Update.
    Let's try the following document first:
    [Windows Update error 8007000b|http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Windows-Update-error- 8007000b]
    Next head to Windows Update and try stocking back on Windows Updates again. If you're a long way behind (sometimes this has been going on for months for people), you may need to do it in several batches. Basically, keep going back to Windows Update until it stops offering you new updates.
    After you're stocked back up on Windows Updates, try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
    (If you can't get Windows Updates to install, post back to let us know the error codes you've been getting on the most recent attempts at updates. Sometimes things are in such a snarl that we have to try a few different measures with them.)

  • Cannot install iTunes on XP Professional

    I cannot install iTunes on my computer.Whenever I try to install the program I get the following errors:
    - the first one:
    ERROR 1406 COULD NOT ADD VALUE TO KEY
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\.cdda\OpenWithList\
    iTunes.s.exe
    -the second error appears after I click on ingnore/retry:
    ERROR 1402 COULD NOT OPEN KEY
    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\Software\Classes\.cdda\OpenWithProdigs
    and the last error:
    ERROR1603 FATAL ERROR DURING INSTALLATION
    Consult windows installer help...
    What should I do?

    I fixed my problem (Itunes 6.0) by running regedit.
    In windows:
    Start / Run
    Type regedit and press ok
    Locate the following folder in your registry
    My Computer\HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.cdda
    Right-click the .cdda folder, and choose "Permissions..."
    Add or edit your useraccount, so it will have full control over .cdda and click apply.
    I do have administrator rights on the machine, but the ITunes setup doesnt seem to know. Im guessing you can edit the permissions for the folder back after install... but I haven't gotten around to that yet
    Hope it'll fix your install to!

So it starts and it stops ends the installation process and saying me -in italian language- "Si sono verificati errori prima che iTunes potrebbe essere configurato. Il sistema non è stato modificato". In english language it means: "Troubles occurred before iTunes could be set up".

    It will work with Windows 7 32 bit.  On a 64 bit you will have to install Windows XP Mode.  You can download it from the Microsoft Website.  The XP Mode will run Windows XP in 32 bit.  Microsoft has easy instructions on the download.  One download at a time.  Install the first download then the second download.  You will have to copy your icon from all program and paste to the desktop if you are going to use it often.
